    FYI this is only part one, i've got two variations of this strat coming, both of which make the farming speed skyrocket. One is just as easy as this, tho one takes a little IG skill.

      Well actually if use thunder element kinsect you can drain out the Alatreon energy no matter it is in ice active, dragon active or fire actice. Then, you can survive the supernova. FYI, bring health booster drain out the Alatreon energy with thunder kinsect, when Alatreon use the ultimate place your health booster and use your kinsect go attack Alatreon, lifesteal and the regen from health booster can keep you safe.

      Go look up kinsect only runs in 4u. Fatalis was one of the first monsters people tried it on thanks to its ridiculously high misreported 80 dragon hz on its head and the discovery that kinsects did 10x their display element instead of 1/10 like regular weapons. I've soloed most of the g rank quests with kinsect in that game and it also makes great "support" because kinsect is the best ko weapon in 4u, and can easily score 3 or 4 kos on a 5 minute hunt.

    I FINALLY managed to beat this monster. Honestly I am ecstatic. It took me two attempts to do it. The first attempt I carted 4 times and I was at the 47 minute marker. The second attempt I decided to change to dragon element and actually managed to get through the whole fight while only carting once. I fainted to the third escaton judgement (which I swear is a lot harder to contain than the others). And then after he did about 6 escaton judgements, I beat him at the 41 minute mark. Thank you so much for this guide man. This was honestly keeping me up at night as I really wanted to not only beat him, but SOLO him. And I finally managed to do it after wasting so much of my time trying. For those of you that are still struggling with this fight, repeatedly going for the head is key because that will make sure he dies sooner. Don't stop going for his head even when both the horns break. And also always charge up your insect glaive after he does escaton judgement. Honestly the fact that this guide is out and he's STILL a pain in the ass shows how honestly unfair this fight is. I can understand how there are objectively well designed things about him, but at the same time I think the fact that it limits you to only certain play styles is objectively bad design. Anyway, great video mate!

      Plunderblade has a cap on how many times it can plunder. The blade itself is limited to 4, and the shinies it can drop are on the same counter as the shinies Alatreon drops on bang or elemental topple. You'll usually run out of new shinies after like 10 or so minutes, maybe 15.

    A small heads up.
    If you aren't very accurate in hitting the head, you might run out of slinger ammo to boost your kinsect. (happened to me and Alatreon was just at 10% health)
    Having slinger capacity helps a lot.

    • @ConsOA
      @ConsOA  4 роки тому +3

      Were you using the tenderise attack much? Like accidently wasting ammo? Because combined with the dragon pods ala drops it seemed like it would be enough, but honestly i never play kinsect without slinger up so im probably wrong

    • @MagicDonut00
      @MagicDonut00 4 роки тому +2

      I'm using full MR KT set for the free meal spam, trading divine blessing level 5 for divine blessing 3 and speed eating 3. Using Laguna Glaive and Foliacath with opposing element to Alatreon, it does about 50ish damage per peck to the head and 60 damage per peck to the front arms. Targeting the front arms is a lot easier than the head. The only time I switch to head is when it's in Dragon Active. Also with every topple I use IG combos on it's head. Try to prioritize pecking the front legs and see how you fare and only ever tenderize it when you need more slinger ammo. Also, I don't even bother trying to flinch shot it as I tend to miss a lot and just waste the limited slinger ammo we have access to. (When it's in Dragon Active, Foliacath Ice/Fire does about 30ish damage per peck to the head and 39 damage per peck to the front leg.)

  • @silverdragoneyes
    @silverdragoneyes 4 роки тому +12

    If you have the upgraded Behemoth glaive, you can actually get through ice active if you have an ice bug or fire active if you have a fire bug. Since the glaive does dragon damage, you can make use of it in the active mode where your kinsect is useless. This does require knowledge on how to use an IG but I've beaten Alatreon with no carts using this method. I save all my mounts for the phase where my kinsect is useless so when it goes back into dragon active I can spam it with my kinsect to deal enough element damage.

    Late to the party, but extremely eye opening. Its irritating that the game never directs you to tempered as part of progression. I've been struggling at Safi, and broken at Alatreon, and the game never said "you should be doing tempered." The handler has just been yelling at me to do safi, which I skirt by, and now she continuously tells me to do Alatreon. They are made available WAY to early, which confuses so many players. This is where all the "late game" complaints are from. So thanks for getting me on the correct progression path.

    • @ConsOA
      @ConsOA  2 роки тому +1

      No problem, though looking back I might have been overestimating how easy this is. You do need to be able to actually hit the thing with the kinsect semi consistently, but otherwise it's pretty hard to die until you run out of horn breaks and the element starts changing, at which point every second nova will take you out. Should be enough time if you're moderately okay at aiming the kinsect. Good luck!
      (Also i think the GS matchup is really good against this guy, so try soloing that and watching my coverage of that if you haven't already and need some help)

    @BloodborneASN 4 роки тому +9

    I believe Alatreon is a nice lesson to the casual players who typically look for "one weapon for all" weapons. Now y'all can't rely on that, now you need to actually look at the weaknesses of a monster and plan for that. All I had to do was add in an element charm (fire or ice) and a high element weapon (LS Main) and his nova stopped being a problem.

    • @atraxian5881
      @atraxian5881 4 роки тому +1

      Before Alatreon, most of the time the Raging Bracky IG was my "one weapon for all" ;-P
      Decent raw, native purple, no need of handicraft and has blast as an added bonus. That's the best combination for casual hunting.

      @moonshinetheleocat1235 4 роки тому +2

      As a Hunting Horn main through the series... I have never really settled on "One Weapon for all" as each horn had different songs to answer different fights. I didn't feel slighted when I was told I had to use an elemental weapon. I just laughed and busted out the Shrieking Legiana horn. Then later... the Safi Frosthorn with Elemental Song Up.... and now the fight is an utter joke as I smack in in the face with 1240 elemental damage or (124 damage before modifiers). True Crit element on that? And the bard becomes the hero of this tale.

      I have something that I call my Four Horsemen. They're the four weapons that I mainly use for hunting and they all serve a unique purpose.
      Dual Blades for smaller and quicker monsters like the kulu yaku.
      Long sword for crowd control and slaying minor monsters in groups.
      Insect Glaive for monsters that like to stay in the air.
      And my charge blade for the more tankier and ground monsters. Helps to block and attack with swift or heavy movements.

I agree on the damage problem - the problem with the glaive on the whole is that it’s highest motion values tend to come at the end of the combos, which with a fast moving monster like Alatreon makes it pretty difficult to get those high damage numbers! I think with a combination of Rocksteady Mantle and Perhaps vitality with Gaia’s Veil might allow the full combos to finish and get the required damage, that’s gonna be my strategy at least!

      if the builds are really the same (just recommending to triple check just in case maybe your kinsect isnt fully upgraded?) then you might not be buffing/charging your kinsect. @1:25 Cons explains how to do it. You know you have it if you see the red square to the right of your 3 kinsect buffs and kinsect stamina bar on the top left. NOT to be confused with the red diamond attack buff that takes the 1st of the 3 kinsect buff slots. Also, you need monster drop slinger ammo so dragon pods and thorn pods are the only ones ive seen in the Alatreon fight.
      Other possibility is that youre using fire element kinsect when Alatreon starts in fire mode? (OR using ice element kinsect when its starting in ice mode but that doesnt happen with the special assignment)
